Fix and ship your Bolt app

Bolt.new is fast at front ends. We add what a real product needs underneath: a backend that holds up, logins and payments you can trust, and hosting you own. One fixed price, quoted after a free review.

A good start, with predictable gaps

Bolt builds in the browser and can put a screen in front of you in minutes. What it often leaves behind is a front end with a thin or missing backend, a database wired up in a hurry, and a deployment that works until you touch it.

  1. A front end with no real backend

    Business logic running in the browser, where it can’t be trusted or secured.

  2. Logins that leak

    Sign-in stitched together by prompts, with sessions and password resets that fail in odd ways.

  3. Payments without a server

    Stripe or similar called from the browser, so the person paying can change the price or the order.

  4. Hosting you can’t run

    A deployment nobody on your side can rebuild, roll back or move.

  5. Fine for one user, slow for fifty

    Requests that time out as soon as real traffic arrives.

  6. No tests, no alerts

    Nothing tells you when checkout breaks.

From a Bolt.new preview to a product

Once the backend and hosting are yours, you can still edit the front end in Bolt, or have us do it. We write down which parts are safe for which.

  1. Review

    Free. We read the code and use the app the way your customers will, then tell you in plain English what it needs.

Questions about Bolt.new apps

How do I get my code out of Bolt?

Bolt can download the project or push it to GitHub. We’ll walk you through it on the first call. It takes a few minutes.

Can you add a proper backend to a Bolt app?

Yes. It’s the most common Bolt job: a server, a database, sign-in and payments that live where users can’t tamper with them.

Will you rebuild it from scratch?

Rarely. We keep what works, fix what doesn’t, and tell you if a part would cost less to rebuild than to repair.

How much does it cost?

We review first, for free, and quote second: one fixed price in writing before any work starts. A bigger app is quoted one milestone at a time, each with acceptance criteria.

Built with something else?

Bolt.new is a product of its owner. Vif Labs is an independent studio and is not affiliated with or endorsed by it.
